Little Ghost's Valentines finds the courage to show his neighbours and friends just how much he cares for them in this delightful Valentine’s Day picture book by bestselling author-illustrator Maggie Edkins Willis.

Little Ghost loves love and can’t wait to make Valentine’s Day cards for all his friends—especially Anya. But when it’s time to hand them out, Little Ghost becomes overwhelmed and doesn’t think he can do it. Then a gust of winter wind sends his cards flying around the neighbourhood!

While tracking down the valentines, Little Ghost and Anya discover that a little love goes a long way in their community…and that sometimes the love you give will make its way back to you.
